Dr Maneesha Mohan, a women's wellness counsellor at the CK Birla Hospital, provides insight into breastfeeding and toddlerhood.

She addresses a common query: "Is it okay to breastfeed a child beyond their first year?" Dr Maneesha highlights that the World Health Organization recommends breastfeeding for up to two years or beyond, as it offers numerous health benefits for both mother and child. She emphasises that breastfeeding provides essential nutrients, and immune support, and promotes bonding between mother and child.

Dr Maneesha acknowledges that cultural norms and personal preferences may influence individual decisions, but reassures that extended breastfeeding is a natural and beneficial practice.

She encourages mothers to seek guidance from healthcare professionals to address any concerns and ensure both maternal and child well-being throughout the breastfeeding journey.
